Name two important ideas from the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution.

Why this is the answer

The two founding documents share one set of ideas. Equality and natural rights come straight from the Declaration: all people are created equal and are born with rights. Liberty is one of those rights. The social contract is the idea that government exists by agreement of the people, which the Declaration states as "the consent of the governed" and the Constitution states as "We the People". Limited government is the Constitution's design: written powers, and a separation of powers so that no branch grows too strong. Self-government ties it all together: the people govern themselves. You need to name any two. Memory hook: equal people, free people, who agree to a limited government they run themselves.
